How does your game fit the theme?
The phylosophy behind this idea is that controlling things and bring order to the chaos eventually kills everything (Chaos-Life/Order-Death). The idea of the game is to throw the player into an chaotic garden where it must survive. If you keep organizing the plants it makes them and the enviroment less productive.

The idea is creative and quite original but pretty complex for a game jam. What I mean is that you need to figure how the game operates to then come up with strategies just to get a grasp of the game, which is quite a lot to demand for a game jam game. Though if you give it time it is quite enjoyable

Thanks a lot for playing :)

I was concerned about that... after the first night i woke up like "man... is this too much?" but was too late to try other interactions that could be more hop on and play it. Not that it was really too late, but since it was my first game jam ever (and first finished-ish game) so I wasnt sure how long it would take me to finish a game.

Yeah I totally get what you're saying, but don't be discouraged. The first time is always the hardest!

Curti muito, bem divertido e viciante.

O game além de divertir ele te leva a refletir muito a respeito do equilíbrio entre as coisas.

(I enjoyed it very, very fun and addictive. The game besides amusing it takes you to reflect a lot about the balance between things.)
